Ever play the old Dark Tower boardgame?

[John Q. Mayhem]

I played this really cool electronic board game a few times at my grandparents' house. It had a circular board with a large black plastic tower in the middle. You'd tramp around the four quarters of the board fighting brigands and gathering resources and the keys of the Tower. Whoever gets all three keys and clears the Tower of brigands first wins.

Anyways, I just found an online version.

Freakin' sweet!

I had this game as a kid and I played the hell out of it until the tower developed some kind of problem and stopped working. I think I saw the tower up in the top of a closet at my moms house just a couple weeks ago. I need to go grab that thing for use as terrain even though it no longer works.

This game ruled all. Back in the day when video games were just a novelty

I downloaded a Javascript version of Dark Tower just a couple weeks ago and have been playing it. I love it!

I found the Java version. Here's a link to the file:

I actually think it's better than the flash version. It's cleaner, and it allows for a single player game. Check it out.

SWEET!!!

I loved this game as a kid. Played it so much I broke the machine, i think.

My brother and I had great fun with that game. I think it went in a yard sale after we both went to college. He told me he had seen copies of the game going pretty high on ebay, so I guess enough folks liked it for there to be a demand.
